About Me

My name is Jim Nicholson and I am a freelance photographer based in Port Orchard, Wa. I started my career in photography many years ago doing both studio and location work My interest is in fashion, glamour and narrative portraiture and creative/artistic theme shoots, In the warmer months I do location shoots all around the Puget Sound
area. In the colder months I do studio shoots with creative lighting and concepts in my fully equipped personal studio in Port Orchard.
My studio is located approximately 20 minutes from the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, just past Gig Harbor.

If we shoot you will find I am not just some 'guy with camera' looking to be around pretty girls. I am a knowledgeable professional with professional results.

TF and portfolio building shoots are always considered. Working with models who do not yet have a lot of experience is also often not a problem. Someone has to discover awesome new talent and it might as well be us. :-)
Very often I don't mind paying travel expenses for the model for TF shoots if it is a shoot that will benefit my portfolio as well. Models are welcome to bring one person with them to any shoot if they want to. Nudity is never a necessity and is never shot with age under 21.

Lastly I am a happily married man who treats my models respectfully. A shoot with me must be friendly, fun and with no drama. A relaxed shoot is a good shoot. I always appreciate for TF shoots if the model is willing to participate some in the planning, bringing appropriate personal props or things like that.

For contract paid work we do what the client asks.

Thanks for reading this. If interested drop me a message here or email or facebook.

Drop me a message if you have any questions or are interested in discussing a shoot, either contract or TF.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING

Some photographers like taking high school senior portrait style images. (look at their portfolio to see if that's their thing)
That's fine if that is what you are wanting, but if that is what you want I am not the photographer for you. I have a little of that in my MM portfolio but I'm not taking anymore of those jobs. If we work together, please be serious and truly interested in working to get the images we can be proud of. Thanks for stopping by,
Jim
